On Saturday, Frælsi in Vágar is organising the sixth festival Grand Prix race of the summer. There will also be a fun run/fitness run and a children’s race. Meet at the church in Sørvágur, where registration and bib number collection will take place. The plan was for the school to provide changing facilities and showers afterwards, but because of work at the school it will not be possible to get in there. Another room will be available to change in on Saturday, but without showers afterwards.
The programme will be as follows:
- 10:00 – registration and bib number collection at the church
- 11:00 – all GP groups – just under 7 km
- 11:00 – fun runners run 3 km
- 11:40 – children under 7 run approx. 500 m
- 11:50 – children under 10 run approx. 500 m
- 12:00 – children under 13 run 1 km
- 12:00 – children under 17 run 1 km
- 12:30 – medal presentation, coffee and waffles
The adults’ course is the same one that has been run before in connection with the Vestanstevna in Sørvágur. The start is at the church, and the route goes to Bøur, turning a little above the first houses in the village. The course is just under 7 kilometres. The other distances are also run halfway west along the Bøur road, then turn and run back. The Island Games athletes are away that day, so for some the way should be clear for a good placing that day – now is the time to give it everything!
Registration is open on the website. Fun runners running 3 km must register on the day.
There will be a medal presentation after the race. A pleasant cup of coffee with waffles will also be available.
At the Vestanstevna in 2010 it was mostly yellow and blue. This time we expect to see plenty of green, red and orange as well!
Everyone is welcome to take part, including those who do not intend to compete in the Grand Prix.
Frælsi is ready and hopes for a good turnout!
